IFIs in Indonesia
This series of monthly factsheets on International Financial Institutions (IFIs) will include information on the World Bank Group, the International Monetary Fund (IMF) and the Asian Development Bank (ADB), focussing on their involvement in Indonesia. |
This Factsheet takes a closer look at ADB lending to Indonesia. In the October 2000 CGI the ADB pledged to lend US$1.3bn. Approximately similar amounts have been lent in recent years. For introductory notes on the ADB see Factsheet 3
It focuses on selected loans that have potential impacts on the Environment and Natural Resource Management. The full current list of ADB Loans to GoI is available at http://www.adb.org/Documents/Profiles/default.asp?key=ctry&val=LOAN&scpe=13
The Factsheet is split into two areas - SALs (Sectoral Adjustment Loans) and Non-SALs. SALs are the more controversial of ADB loans as they aim to change the structure of an economic industry or sector. Often this means privatisation, de-regulation or liberalisation. The loans listed below include worrying objectives such as 'managing labour redundancies' and 'building acceptance for electricity price increases' and 'reducing state assistance to small businesses'.
Critics of the ADB believe this leads to faster natural resource depletion and environmental degradation.
Lobbying the ADB
Once a project is identified by agreement between a government and ADB, it is processed and implemented. The various steps from project identification to completion compose what is known as the project cycle. The ADB has a limited record of openness and consultation compared with the World Bank. NGOs can request information and consultation at any stage of specific project loans. For best results fax requests/complaints etc. on official headed letter paper, rather than e-mail.
The ADB Project Cycle is:

ADB Current SALs
The aims, contents and status plus further information on selected SALs are shown in Table 1. Quotes are from Project documents.
Other ADB - funded Projects (Non-SAL)
Some non-SAL loans from the ADB to GoI are listed in Table 2. In general these projects have much smaller budgets than SALs but, as their initial target areas are more localised the direct impacts on local communities and environments may be greater. Other projects will be included in a later Factsheet.
